Brief Explanations

Parking a manual transmission vehicle on a hill requires securing it to prevent rolling. Setting the parking brake first holds the vehicle temporarily, then shifting into gear (first or reverse, based on hill direction) provides a mechanical lock, and shutting off the engine last ensures safety. Option A leaves the car in neutral, which allows rolling. Option C risks the car rolling when removing the foot brake before setting the parking brake.

Answer:

B. Set the parking brake first, before you shift into gear and shut off the engine.
